The Smart Biosphere is an exciting project that aims to characterise the North Devon UNESCO Biosphere holistically, integrating data to support evidence based policy and practice.
We are very excited to take delivery of our first marine buoy. This sturdy unit will be deployed into Croyde Bay in the next few weeks, to monitor water quality in the sea.
Smart Biosphere Operational Lead
Sometimes you just need to get your wellies on and get out in the water! High-tech solutions like our in-situ sensors are great, providing real-time water quality data, but low-tech solutions – such as a stick and a bottle – can be the best option.
Smart Biosphere Operational Lead
The climate and nature crises demand solutions that are both grounded in science and built for systems. Yet today, most environmental data remains fragmented—locked in silos, collected for single purposes, and rarely integrated in a way that supports joined-up action.
CEO
The Smart Biosphere is evolving rapidly. We'll be regularly publishing news updates, working to create a world leading capability in North Devon integrating environmental, technology, scientific, economic and social expertise to provide a rigorous, sustainable platform.
